Things that give you the absolute RAGE!!

[strawthatbrokethecamelsback]

DH has just put the dishwasher on a long cycle in the middle of the day 😡 I have all of his family coming shortly for a meal to celebrate his birthday.

surely everyone knows that during the day it’s a short cycle and overnight it’s a long cycle.

now I have to wait 3 bastard hours for it to finish with the pots building up.

of course slightly lighthearted but what does give you the rage?

The absolute dickheads who, in a high traffic area, like a train station, walk backwards and then look annoyed when they trip over passing suitcases

You are literally the people who aren't looking where you're going!!

That reminds me, people sitting on station platforms who heave their luggage onto the bench next to them. It doesn't need a seat, and there's plenty of space on the ground where you can keep an eye on it. If you won't shift it and I've got a while to wait, I will be plonking my arse on it. Keep it on your lap if it's that delicate. Don't get me started on preciousness about bags on the train itself.

People who walk on my fucking HEELS when I am out in public, and then act all affronted and pissed off when I suddenly STOP, and they slam into the back of me..., Ya know, like it's my fault they slammed into the back of me. Don't walk so close to me then you cunt. Bet these cunts do this on the road when driving too.... Tailgate people/drive up their arse!!!!!

ALSO, people who keep looking at their mobile phone when I am with them. Especially when it's someone I only see once every 3-4 months (for coffee,) and they CBA to put their phone on 'do-not-disturb' and keep answering messages and phone calls WHEN THEY ARE WITH ME. (And these calls/messages are never EVER important...!) Rude as fuck. I have given up 2-3 hours of my time, and travelled a 30-35 mile round trip to see you, and spend time with you, and you're pissing about on your fucking PHONE?! Put it on DND and put it AWAY!!!!!!!!!

All the rage is making 😂

Hospital staff who do not washed their hands. Yes I work in the NHS and swe this often!! Makes me so mad. I seen your w all out that toilet and rush past the sinks. Even worse wash hands with water NO soap and then flick your hands everywhere and wipe on your top!!!! 😡

Surgeons and consultants who are blooming 40+yr olds eating sweets while standing over a patient performing surgery!!!!! 😡😡😡😡

Pavement parking. Why the fuck is the security of your car more important than the security of mine and my children's bodies?

Brexit as well, tbh. I'm as furious about it as I was in 2016. I think you could somehow harness anti-Brexit fury as use it as an alternative power source.

Oh and Trump. Everything about him. The fact that he could even be anywhere near the running for the next US election is insane and makes me question democracy and human nature.

This annoys me so so much. When I am Queen people who do this will get a warning the first time and their cars will be taken away and crushed the second time. No third chances.

Me too, along with DS and DH. We have regular rants about it. I am sure I would have lower blood pressure without Brexit!

Recently the police helicopter was up around our area apparently they were looking for someone.

The local police put a message on FB answering the people who had phoned 101 asking why the police helicopter was up!

What sort of tossers clog up police phone lines asking why the helicopter was up when it's bloody obvious they are working.

Nosy idiots.

Oh my god, both these things drives me drives me insane. Dh and Ds both step on the back of my shoes. DS apologies, Dh blames me for stopping to suddenly!!!
People who answer the phone when they are in your company. Dm always got calls from her grandkids, interrupting our conversation, and then moaned that her own sister did this to her.

Nah, if you're dead you don't need toilet roll :)

When people misunderstand probability, particularly really intelligent people. Like you say you are more likely to be killed in a car crash than by a serial killer and they say, oh I'm not allowing my child to walk home from school because did you see that article in the daily mail about that murderer. I've not read anything about car crashes recently.

People who say 'humans' when they could just say people or person. "He's the best human I've ever met", "I just love being with these 2 little humans!" Oh feck off.

Arseholes who beep and have no patience with learner drivers.

I was behind a learner who stalled at traffic lights yesterday. The arsehole behind me beeped him.... The instructor gave me the finger!

Went to collect a takeaway earlier.
She gave me the wrong item,went back with it.
And then she tried to blame me🤣.

Nope if you hadnt have been gossiping,you would have taken the correct order.

Designer prices for ordinary things

£80 for a string bag by Longchamp?

For real?

Inconsiderate street parking on a road totally unsuitable for it.

The estate I live on was built pre the days of people having more than one vehicle or driving a huge work van. It is a single very bendy winding road with 'off road' rows of houses/flats coming off it, accessed by a footpath, big green bit between the rows of houses. Behind each row is a short access road with a few garages at the end, accessing back yards some of which have parking.

There are a few parking pull-in spaces (so off road) dotted around too.

It has numerous blind bends, children playing out, often dogs loose running around, deer, foxes, cats etc.

Not only do people drive round it flat out as its a useful cut-through, avoiding a slow and boring traffic-lighted junction, but people park HUGE vans on the corners, making it single track and totally impossible to see if anything is coming. You have to crawl round and sods law says on every trip you will meet at least one total bell-end coming flat out the other way.

And many vehicles parked up on pavements, plus un-maintained hedges and a total lack of dropped kerbs in the logical places, it is fucking terrifying to negotiate in a wheelchair when I have no choice but to go in the road.

Yesterday someone had brake so hard they skidded and swerved sideways to avoid hitting me, I had nowhere to go at all - and then they swore at ME!

Council not interested in traffic control measures as there are not enough accidents to warrant it, so basically we're waiting for a kid to get flattened.

Tradespeople who turn up 45 minutes early. I booked a specific time as I am working. To expect me to drop everything because they can’t manage their time really pisses me off.

I work from home, running a serious business from my office. I am not just twiddling my thumbs all day and can’t just stop this complicated thing because it suits them.

It was their look of blank incomprehension that really gave me the rage.

Really sicky smug phrases when someone's had a baby
"Newborn bubble"
"Milky snuggles"
"Cocooned ourselves"

It just makes me think of a family sat in a dark room which smells of stale milk with the curtains closed, cocooned in a blanket

Milky snuggles

Fucking hell.

@AmIAutumnalNow
I know!

People who book appointments with me, don't turn up and don't tell me they've cancelled

All the tonnes of cars back on the roads now that kids are back in prison. Haven't you taught them to walk yet?
